If you would like to see screenshot samples of my work click on the galleries to the left. Gallery contents starting top left to right is as follows:
Gallery1-Psychonauts Xbox, PS2 and PC.
I modeled, textured, lit and level designed the environments I put together, such as the ones you see in my reel. I used Photoshop to create textures when needed or placed ones designated by the 2D artists. I used layered textures and a variety of shaders. In addition, I had to efficiently reduce poly count without impacting the visual appeal of the levels for the ps2 version from the xbox and PC builds. I also worked closely with the progammers to place any markers or triggers needed for gameplay.
Gallery2-Virtual Lower East Side for the PC via web.
For this project I acted as environment lead on anything VLES related and was tasked with putting together the whole environment in the Torque engine based on reference they sent from the New York office. I designed the layout, dropped in dts objects, assembled the scene, provided lighting and added appropriate triggers where needed. This project was a challenge because I went from building everything in high performance modeling packages, like Maya, to a simple brush modeller called 3D World Studio.
Gallery3-vSide for the PC via the web.
vSide is created in the same way as the LES project. I collaborated with the art director and the other artists to create urban locations with the flavor of real world cities. For example, LaGenoa Aires was created based on reference from Italy, Spain and South America. I also work with the marketing team to design and create content based on the needs of 3rd party partners like Tyra Banks, Degrassi and Warner Music. I am responsible for layout, design, lighting and placing technical markers and triggers for the engineers, inventory and setting up npcs as well as helping design game content when needed.
